DARK VOYAGE

A couple of years ago, I released a collection of short stories. THE BLACK WIDOW CLUB: NINE TALES OF OBSESSION AND MURDER has had an amazing reception, earning raves from Mystery Scene Magazine and other crime-fiction reviewers. With Halloween just around the corner, it seemed like a great time to put the eBook on sale, with its usual price of $2.99 slashed to just 99 cents. It’s available on iBooks, Kindle, Kobo, and Nook.

Tempted? Here’s what you’ll find inside (cribbed from the jacket copy):

Obsession. Betrayal. Rage. Paranoia. Lust. Revenge. Murder. Anthony Award–winning author Hilary Davidson’s short stories invariably lead to dark places.

In “Stepmonster,” a jilted wife learns that the younger woman who stole her husband may be on the prowl again. In “Son of So Many Tears,” the mother of a criminal discovers the carnage left behind by her son. In “Anniversary,” a man prepares a very special meal for the girl of his dreams. In “Beast,” a wedding-obsessed woman refuses to accept a bad breakup. In “Undying Love,” a dead man with a fading memory tries to piece together the mystery of his own murder. In “Insatiable,” a wealthy old man watches his beautiful wife seduce a new lover. In “Fetish,” a father’s terror about the sick, twisted world his daughter inhabits leads him to take some terrible measures to save her. In “The Other Man,” a bar owner realizes his adulterous days may be numbered when a cuckolded husband starts stalking him. And in the title story, “The Black Widow Club,” a young mother discovers that murder may be a family tradition.

I hope you’ll read the collection… just not before bed! The sale ends on November 7th.
